Yeah, it's a shame that Ed can't ship as I visit that website often. I'm thinking he takes a hit on the motor but makes up for it on other things. The local Suzuki dealer here says he's part of a group that make their purchases, so he's not just one dealer buying.
Just heard from the guy selling the '94 Johnson 175 OceanRunner...he's willing to sell/install/rig it for $2500....hmmm

I know that Ocean Runner's tempting..but there's nothing like hittin' that key on a new one and the gas you'll save over the next several years will be sweet and who knows what gas prices are gonna do

I highly recommend the DF 140....best motta I have ever owned, and I would bet that it will last forever.
As for differences, I think they are the same as my 2003, except for the paint of course, but I am not sure cause I haven't been looking at new motors since I got mine in 03.

I got a 20, but wish I'd got a 25.
I bought the motor several years before I got the V, I had it on an old Starcraft aluminum boat to start with. Get a 25" and use a jack plate to mount it.

I am "DROOLING" about a Suzuki 4-Stroke.
Last weekend at was at the gathering, and I noticed next to us was a 20 something footer with two DF250`s. Later, I see her crew lifting the anchors to leave, I got some 20 feet close to the motors, and I saw water coming out of the cooling water drains, BUT I COULD NOT HEAR OR SEE THE MOTORS MOVING AT ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No smoke, no sound, no vibrations or NOTHING !!!!!!! Simply magical !!!!! And they were 250`s !!!! I had a couple of Suzuki bikes, and they are simply unbreakable, Suzuki products are very long lasting and reliable. GO WITH THE DF MAN, and send me a photo for motivation and raising my self esteem. I will get a DF someday, I am just trying to sell the Yami first but 2-strokers are hard to sell this days.

I have five hundred hours on my 05 or 06 now (it was a leftover) it still runs like the day it was new.
I love it.
